Ridley is WR35 on WR41 usage this season in half PPR formats. He has cleared at least 7.8 expected half PPR points in three straight games and is averaging 6.0 targets across the season. Tennessee holds an implied team total of 18.75 points (25th) this week against a weak Colts defense that has allowed the sixth-most rushing YPG (130) and fifth-most passing YPG (268). A dome environment against a bad defense is favorable for PPR scoring.

In his ninth NFL season with limited role in Tennessee (five catches on eight targets through five games), but not far removed from back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons in 2023 and 2024. At 32 years old, playing in a better offense with Aaron Rodgers could revive his production. The source suggests a 2028 sixth-round pick would be fair compensation for the former Second-Team All-Pro.

Ridley is in his ninth NFL season with a small role in Tennessee, having caught only five passes on eight targets through five games in 2026. However, he isn't far removed from a pair of 1,000-yard seasons in 2023 and 2024, and the source suggests playing in a better offense with a quarterback like Aaron Rodgers could bring out the player he was a few seasons ago. At 32 before season's end, a 2028 sixth-round pick would be fair compensation for the former Second-Team All-Pro.
